“Bureau of Labor statistics show that more new mothers at all income levels are taking job breaks for the first few years of their childrens lives. The group taking these breaks in the greatest numbers is Hispanic mothers of infants, a trend that until now has received little attention. Nationally, only 34 percent of Hispanic mothers with infants are working, compared with 53 percent of all married mothers of infants.
The studys findings have big implications in South Florida. In Miami-Dade County, about 60 percent of new mothers are Hispanic; in Broward County, its about 30 percent.”
